A major water main break in New Jersey has left thousands of people without water as authorities scramble to fix the situation, which is now in its second day.
The 20-inch water main break occurred in the area of Woodbridge Avenue in south Edison near the I-95 around midnight Thursday, Edison authorities said, adding the break is “impacting residents along Woodbridge Avenue, Route 27 and areas up to Talmadge.”
“Residents will experience a low to no water pressure at the present moment,” Edison mayor Sam Joshi had said in a post on FacebookThursday morning. “Our crews have been at work and are in the process of isolating the break.”
Joshi said repairs would be carried out once the “water main break has been isolated,” adding crews are working as “expediently as possible” to restore service.
